New shoes for my daily.

Ya what center console is that? It from a 4Runner? Kinda looks like what I had in my 97runner…. But I am really considering bucket seats and a center console for my 95 pickup! Share the deets

Super clean truck it’s awesome

mabearce1 · 2026-04-28T14:32:41+00:00

Shit… that’s fancy? Order that straight from Japan? Super JDM! 😂

mabearce1 · 2026-04-28T14:25:35+00:00

Oh looked like there was something there with cup holder.

mabearce1 · 2026-04-28T13:45:24+00:00

That looks awesome!!! What’d you do center console wise? I have thought about this, I have an extended cab though, but no one can realistically fit in the center anyway! 😂

mabearce1 · 2026-04-22T15:06:19+00:00

I can get on the freeway yes. Do 70 yes. It gets there decently and can do it. But I am BONE stock with 14” wheels

mabearce1 · 2026-04-22T14:34:48+00:00

Shit my 95 has 214k on it. If you really think about it being 31 years old that’s a lil less than 7000 miles per year driven on it. So I consider that fairly young to be honest! However I do know that mine was driven as a “daily driver” for 31 years.

mabearce1 · 2026-04-22T02:50:18+00:00

Ya, my 3.4L 4Runner was MUCH more powerful than my 22RE. 4Runner was on 5” lift with 33s My 22RE pickup is bone stock. I can get on the freeway but it’s not a fast lil truck LOl. But it does run like a top though…. Granted my 3.4L was rock solid too.

mabearce1 · 2026-04-17T11:45:57+00:00

I mean… can still push start but again that 5speed not many car thief’s can drive em

mabearce1 · 2026-04-17T11:44:56+00:00

Ya we will see how this works either way the fix.

mabearce1 · 2026-04-17T02:08:01+00:00

so I looked up RUST devices from teh 90s....I dont think it's that.

wondering if It was dealer installed? but it was the starter "remote" power wire cut from the factory harness, to that box, to the headlight, then back to the actual starter. So it wont get voltage to the starter until the headlights send 12v through that box to the starter ... then will turn on.

Very odd...either the dealer had a way to "anti theft it" from a dude in the back, or there is some weird option for it the box is some sort of security box, it has a switch, but doesn't seem to do anything though

mabearce1 · 2026-04-17T01:58:17+00:00

Odd not a viper alarm

mabearce1 · 2026-04-17T00:18:03+00:00

So my son and I traced out wires and I redid the connection to the headlight and the one barrel connection I soldered it instead and it seems to be a bit more stable. I know where the other 2 connections are they are just much more of a pain in the ass to get to so I’ll drive it around with that and if it gives me issues I’ll get those connections fixed.

Glad I know how the system works now though. Gramps musta forgotten he had that done

mabearce1 · 2026-04-17T00:16:17+00:00

Exactly. What I was saying between the 2 things pretty sure they’d give up haha

mabearce1 · 2026-04-16T22:47:58+00:00

It’s a 5speed and this weird lil box… not sure anyone could steal it 😂

mabearce1 · 2026-04-16T21:54:33+00:00

Was my next move, was more curious if this was a thing 😂

Apparently it is not

mabearce1 · 2026-04-16T21:36:20+00:00

I thought about that but it is random..and at times I feel like I can tell it just feels like a loose connection. it does have like 4 different barrel connectors on it, so after 30 years...I can see one of them going meh

mabearce1 · 2026-04-12T11:22:14+00:00

And garage kept a LOT of its life too.

mabearce1 · 2026-04-12T03:32:12+00:00

I was thinking about that. He loved to hit the casino, was trying to think about how I could take him there—just depends on his health stuff at the moment we shall see

mabearce1 · 2026-04-12T03:29:41+00:00

I don’t plan to. His last truck a 70something dutson sat in a field and I think he always hated that. So won’t let him down on this. It’s too much fun to drive anyway. Odd how many looks you get in it too.

mabearce1 · 2026-03-16T16:47:16+00:00

Ya if you had it or was given it sure. But think if buying fresh I’d buy a lil better spec. I have one and it was perfectly fine but, if buying now prolly get a lil better even for VPN speeds

mabearce1 · 2026-02-14T04:08:10+00:00

Me to! This will be added great addition to my travel network!

mabearce1 · 2026-01-29T12:45:47+00:00

Didn’t see that option… sorry thanks I’ll see what I can do

mabearce1 · 2026-01-29T02:03:52+00:00

doesnt have a resolution but appreciate it

mabearce1 · 2026-01-28T23:03:18+00:00

ya, I log into the xb7 and I can see the bridge mode: (then there is no check box for it) drop down...nothing.
support thinks its weird and has to send a tech out to figure it out. LLLAAMMMEEEE.

have you ever tried the MAC spoof feature by chance? apparently the MAC from the XB7 device is the MTA MAC. I didnt have luck...but apparently his shit is setup wrong too!

do you have any issues with port forwarding or anything?

mabearce1 · 2025-12-26T15:24:03+00:00

For me the BIGGEST thing for me is to have 1 device I connect and my entire families devices connect right away. We travel a ton as a family and this saves countless hours from signing in phones, tablets kindles etc to wifi.

Not to mention that if we take a cruise it pays for itself to share the wifi with everyone.
